From -Rohrerstown.
ItiiiiitEnsTowx, Dee. 28
Having noticed that yon are publishing
communications of a local character from
nearly all parts'of the county I trust that a
short communication from our village will
be acceptable. Robrerstown on the Penn
sylvaiiia Railroad is accessible by three
trains from the west and four from the
east daily. Our town though seemingly
an ancient place Is not more than about
forty years old. It has three streets passing
through 'it from east to west, and four
from north to south. The village contains
a large i oiling mill owned by Col. D. W.
Patterson of Lancaster, and when in oper
ation affords employment for about forty
men; at present it is not in operation, and
makes business quite dull. We have two
hotels—one kept by Mr. M. Deitrich,
the other by M. Bruckhurt. There are
also two dry goods and grocery stores
in the.place, and a confectionery establish
ment kept by Mr. Landis who was very
amply prepared with all kinds of confec
tions and supplied all who made demands
on him during the holidays. The German
Reformed and Lutheran congregations have
a very fine church in the town though it is
yet minus a bell ; an effort is being made
to raise the required amount of money to
purchase one. We hope they will succeed. '
Our graded school is a success. The high
er department is taught by Z. L. T. Shaeffer
and the primary by H. G. Newcomer. The
building is a new one and is supplied with
many of the modern improvements. Dr.
S. G. Gray is thornily physician in the town
and is kept very busy at the present time
and though a partial stranger in the neigh
borhood is meeting with very good suc
cess, creating a confidence in all who em
ploy him. J. K.Drubaker is establishing a
wide reputation as veterinary surgeon. The
town is generally very quiet, us persons
who have occasion to visit the place will
find it to be. GASPER.
RELmrous.—There will be preaching in
the Presbyterian church by the pastor, next
sabbath morning and evening.
There will be special services in the Pres
byterian church every evening of next week
and the week following, beginning at 7
o'clock. The young are especially welcome.
The recent enlargement of the church af
fords ample room for strangers.
Divine services may be expected on Sa
turday morning, new year's day,lo o'clock,
In the Episcopal church.
On Sunday, services as usual, with the
Holy Communion in the morning.
Evening prayer and lecture on Friday
evening.
There will be Watch services in the U. B.
church on Friday night, Dee. 31, opening
by a sermon on "The Diary of 1569."
On Sabbath at usual hours the following
services :
iklorning subject—" The Books nested."
Evening subject—" Words written on the
gates of 1570."
SEWING MACnINE AGENCY.—Mr. G.
T. Fobes has opened a new Sewing Ma
chine Agency at 213 North Front street.
Ho is the sole and exclusive agent for the
saleof Wheelers Sewing Machine in
Columbia, and from his well-known ener
gy and business tact, and his very wide:ac
quaintance with the people, will certainly
meet with success. The 'Wheeler & Wilson
Machine is becoming very popular, and
from the great number already sold in Lan
caster county, it must certainlypossess su
perior merit. Families and others, who
have not yet been supplied with this indis
pensable machine should secure one at
once. We wish Mr. Fobes success in his
new enterprise.
Since writing tho above Mr. Fobes has
opened rooms at No. 251 Locust street. See
advertisement.

citizen of Drainer° ; townsb

2 o'clock, struck a light, and on seeing
what time it was, called to his wife a "mer
ry Christmas" several times but received no
response. A daughter sleeping in an ad
joining room,a-sked why her mother did not
answer, and, on going to the bedside with
a light it was found that she was dead and
partially cold. Mrs. Penrose was about
fifty-live years of ago. She had been un
well for some months, but on retiring on
'riday she expressed he: self as feeling bet
ter than for some time past.—Express.
WIL-9T WE WANT.—F. B. Roe's corps
of map engineers of Philadeldhia ate enga
gaged in surveying and publishing mape.
They propose issu tag maps of Lancaster,
Columbia and Marietta in this county.
A portion of Columbia has already been
surveyed and drafted, and if sufficient en
couragement is offered Mr. Roe will com
plete the surveye,have the maps lith °graph
ed,printed on heavy paper,mounted on can
vass and rollers and finished in colors.
This will form a standard work of reference
for all citizens and property-holders. C. T.
LeGette, E. E. will have charge of the Co
lumbia map.
BEAUTIFUL 'HOLIDAY CI oous.—The
lace collars, handkerchiefs Ate., displayed
in Fondersmitit's windows are very attrac
tive and are meeting with steady sales. We
overheard a lady remark that "they were
the cheapest goods she had seen anywhere
this season." And the same may be said
of the many kinds of seasonable drag goods,
shawls, velvetteen ttc., which are offered
at prices, that cannot fail to suit every class
of buyers. We are requested to announce
a third opening of furs for this week. Truly
this does not look like "dull thnus"judging
from the way our neighbor Fondersmith
pushes things.
KNIGHTS TEMPLA meeting of
Cyreue Commandery, 31. K. T., was
held on Thursday evening. There was an
attendance of Sir. Knights from Lancaster
and other places.
Fifteen members were initiated, and de
grees conferred. After the meeting a boon-
ful collation was served, in which all par-
ticipated. The entire management of this
affair was entrusted to J. IL Black, that
prince of caterers,whose good tastes did jai
tice to the occasion
BUSINESS 011ANGES.—The firm of Mar

and we are glad to sec it opened again.
The old stand in Front street will be oc

The observance of Christmas was very
general, and with the religious services, the
traditional calls, and heart-folt cengt'atula
tions, the clay was spent pleasantly by those
who felt inclined to observe it.
The Churches hold services as announce I
in the SryJof last week; several important
notices were omitted; from the fact that we
went to press on Thursday afternoon in
stead of Friday as usual, The Sabbath.
School of the Reformed Church held a very
pleasant service and festival on Friday
evening. A large Christmas Tree had boon
erected, from which gifts were taken and
distributed to the children. A few persons
—not children—also shared in the distribu
tion. The regular Christmas service era'
hold, the children all joining. A pleasant
time was spent. The church, decorated
with wreaths, and festooned, looked beau
tiful. Over the pulpit in graceful arch were
the letters "Glory to God in the Highest."
Rev. F. Pilgrarn addressed the school.
The Paul's Episcopal Church was a gem
of beauty. •The decorations, as reported in
last weekls Sex worn completed, and many
additions made. An attractive ornament
on the wall was an anchor, formed of box
wood,and twined with ivy. The large Christ
mas tree was surmounted by the bright
"Star of the East" and illuminated by near
ly one hundred and fitly candies. The Sun
day school was out in its strength, the chil
dren being anxious to ascertain what gifts
had been selected for them. The effect of
the entire scene was very pleasing. The
singing by the school was very fine, and
the hymns selected suitable for the occa
sion. Roy. Mr. Douglass made a short and
appropriate address.
Early services wore bold on Christmas
morning in the Reformed, Methodist, St.
Paul,s Episcopal and St. Peter's Catholic
churches. At tho latter church, 'High mass

churches respeeLivelvcame oil successfully.
A Christmas tree was presented to the chil
dren of the German Lutheran church. Tao
concert was even more successful than that
of the 18th. The entertainment of the M. E.
church7was very interesting and the perfor
mance highly creditable to those having the
!natter in charge. Could wo be possessed of
reportorial übiquity, we would have wish
ed for at least triple individuality on
Christmas evening.
In several of the churches on Sunday
rcfcrenco was made to the glorious festival
of the Christian Church, which had just
passed.
A very large congregation assembled in
the United. Brethern church to hear Rev.
W. 11. S. Keys on the Richardson—McPar
land tragedy, or "Crime and its Lessons."
The discourse was one of unusual interest
and power,
Roy. A.. Swarts preached in the Lutheran
church on Sunday evening, the pulpit be
ing vacated by the resignation of Mr. Steak.
The other observances of Christmas were
the usual gymnast performance of men and
boys in masks, with grotesque suits on,
and " music for the million." The amount
of fun enjoyed by these pan tom imists can
not be estimated. All shapes and figures
were attempted, and from the number of
colored characters assumed great injustice
must have been done to the oppressed race.
A well known quartette club furnished
some excellent music
" From out their masks, so dull and hid-
ME
A large number of social visits, good
wishes and congratulations wero exchang
ed during the day, intorsperced only by the
bountiful feasts spread everywhere for the
guests who might call.
We believe that in more than one sense
it was a merry Christmas.
TATTLizs:a.—A subscriber has banded
us the following with the request that it be
Published. We cheerfully accede to the ro
quest.
A- family has a satired right to privacy.
In guarding the delicatb 'relation iifthe
household secrecy becomes a virtue. Even
if by chance the private aflitirs of a house
hold are laid open to a stranger, honor
would require him to turn from them, and
if a knowledge were forced upon him, they
should be locked in sacred silence.
A double obligation of silence aad secre
cy rests upon one who is a guest in a talni
ly. The turpitude of a family history by a
visitor, is far greater thou theft would be.
To pocket half a dozen of silver spoons
would do tar less damage, produce far less
suffering, and be loss immortal than tale
bearing. It is a thing so scandalous that it
should degrade a person, and put him out
of good society.
To betray the secrets of a household is not
only an odious immorality, but it is a sin
and a shame to be on good terms with those
who are known to commit such outrages.
They put themselves oul of tho pale of de
cent society. They should be treated as
moral outlaw.
Theseihungry-eyed wretches who sit in the
unsuspicious circlo of parents and children
treasuring their words, spying their weak
nesses, misrepresenting the innocent liabil
ities of the household, and run from house
to house with their shameless news, are
worse than poisoners of wells or burners of
houses. They poison the faith of man in
man. If ono open his mouth to telt you
such things, with all your might smite him
in the Moe! There are two actions which
justify you in instantly knocking a man
down ; the ono is the act of pointing a gun
at you hi sport, and the other is the attempt
to tell you a secret winch it is disgt aceful
for him to get, and for you to he: Make
no terms with such people. Talc-bearers
have no rights. They are common enemies
ofgood men. Hunt, hurry and pound them
out of society. They are the worst pests
save one, and that is the listener to a tale
bearer.
There coaled be no tattling if t here was not
one to hear. It to lies an ear and tongue to
make a scandal. Greedy listening is as
disbono ra We as nimble tattling. The ear is
the open market where the tongue sells its
ill-gotten wares. Sonic there are that will
repeat again what they hear, but they are
willing to listen to it. 'They wilt not trade
in contraband goods, but they will not buy
enough of the smuggler for family use.
These respectable listeners are the patrons
of tattlers. It is the ready market that
keeps tale-bearing brisk. It is a shame to
listen to ill of your neighbor. Christian
benevolence dem:m.ls that you do not love
ill news. A clean heart and true honor re
joice in kindly things. It should be a pain
and a sorrow to know of anything that de
grades your neighbor in your eyes oven if
it is your enemy; how much more if he is
your fr.end ?
CAN You TELL ?—Can any one tell
how it is that at man who is too poor to pay
5 or:10 cents a week for a good weekly paper
is able to pay fifteen cents a day for tobacco.
and cigars, to say nothing Gran occasional
drink ?—NEw Aar:.
Yes, Bro. Austin, we can tell you—at least
we think we can. Because his taste for ci
gars and tobacco and stimulants is more
cultivated than is his mind for good reading
correct information, and a desire to keep
pace with the world, which can only lie
done by a perusal of the good papers of the
day. The animal outweighs the mental ;
the appetite is superior in such men to the
heart and mind.—Culuntel.
QUARILY VILLE.—The special discourse
on the Character of Christ, announced.
to be preached at Quarryville, in the Re
formed church by Rev. J. V. Ealtert,twil I be
delivered to-morrow evening, haying been
postponed on account of the inclemency or
the weather.
REMEMBER that the property on Wal
nut street (No. 22f2) is offered at public sale
this Saturday by John Goll. It is a very
fine home, and being repaired beautifully
is very desirable. There is a bargain here
which is not offered every day,
.PERSONAL.—WiIIiam Hinkle, Esq., a
nephew of Dr. F. Hinkle, and bride from
Kansas City, Mo., have been spending a
law days with Dr. and Mrs.F.Hinkle. From
our Kansas exchanges we:learn that the fair
couple were married on the 14th of Decem
ber, and that the nuptials were celebrated
with imposing ceremonies. The party
started on their bridal tour immediately
after, accompanied to the depot by a vast
concourse of friends.
They arrived safely here on the eveningof
the 24th, visiting in their trip St. Louis,
Chicago, Cleveland, and Pittsburg. While
here they were entertained by Dr and Mrs.
F., Hinkle In becoming style, and received
the cepgratulationi of a host ,of .triends.
'Prom here they go to Philadelphia. A visit
to New York, Boston and the Canadas was
contemplated, but the advice of friends has
induced them to return from Columbia to
Kansas City.
They will bear with them to their West
ern home, the heartfelt congratulations of
their friends bore. The remembrance of
these greetings will tend to make life still
more pleasant, and keep ever green the
memory of that blissful hour when
Across the threshold led,

A gnardain angel o'er his life presiding,
Doubling pleasure, and his cares divid

A GRATEFUL PEOPLE.-11 meeting of
the Lutheran congregation was held on
Wednesday evening, Dec. 22, prior tall°
departure of Mr. Stock for Kansas City,
Mo. After the congregational meeting, the
friends of Mr. Stock waited upon him in

fulTocket-book containing upwards of one
hundred dellars, some in specie, and a few
rare pocket pieces ; a gentleman's compan
ion, a very rine umbrella, several presents
from the children, and other substantial
articles. We are requested to return the
thanks of Mr. Stock to his friends for their•
many kind manifestations.
Tit READING Room—Since the ne
c,..,ssity.of establishing a reading room in our
borough is felt by all, the only question that
remains is how can it be done? If our
most enterprising citizens will take hold of
the matter, it will be accomplished. The
place and location are now the only an
culties to be overcome. The reading room
once established, can be easily maintained.
It will be the means of doing much good,
Tho lavorable consideration which the mat
ter has received from all classes of 'citizens,
rich and poor, clergy and laity, old and
young, is a cheeriog guarantee that it will
be ttccompl ished.
vt:w L tue.tßY.—The Lutheran Se b
bath school have purchased a large now li
-brary, which added to their already exten
sive collection of books, constitute a first
class Sabbath School Library. The library
committee purchased it from Messrs May
b Erwin, who kindly allowed them to se
lect from a now invoice gotten. up especial
ly for them. The school feel under many
obligations to these gentlemen for the court
esy and kindness extended.
New books received at the Keystone Book
store as soon as issued; and for sale at the
lowest cash prices. The holiday stock large
and complete, toy's are selling off rapidly,
and at fabulously low prices.
SALES OF REAL ESTATE.—The prop
erties belonging to the estate of Chas. Lack
ant were sold by Henry Wisler. Adminis

The first property, situated near 11. Wis.
ler's was sold for ft2OS, per acre ; 11. Wisler

considered a fair price.
'Otin carriers-will present their compli
rne,nts to the patrons or the SPY this New
Yohr's morn, and solicit a greenback sou
venir. Wo trust that they will be wel
comed eyerywhore.
THE ]+ . :u¢.—This is the last evening,
of the fair, and we trust it will be well at
tended. Our firemen should be able to re
alize a handsome sum over the expenses of
the fair.
A 31Ammorn Pim N.—We were skown
